That application will probably count steps from accelerometer while active and maybe even estimate steps while in the background, but it can't actually count in the background.

    Here is link to one popular pedometer app. And a quote from that page....

    http://www.ievolution.ca/iphone/all-in-pedometer-calories-burned-running-step-walking-iphone-app/

    "NOTE to iOS 4 users: All-in Pedometer is fully supported by iOS 4 but does not work in background because of iOS 4 limitations. No accelerometer-based pedometer will work in background on iOS 4 because of multitasking limitations of iOS 4. This is NOT the application issue. Sorry for the inconvenience."

          it is laggy, i have no idea why they didn't fix it, like coverflow is so smooth, so i don't understand why that photo editor is so slow, is it heavier or bad optimization, i dont know, but weird.

            http://mobile.viaden.com/runmeter-for-iphone.html this does that, and works background, count them on background too. Now we are at point what i already knew, only people who really have used iphone multitasking knows what you can do with iphone multitasking and what not, i can tell those what not things hasn't many :)

            That's why i dont want to listen that crap from users who really havent even tryed it, they just say it's bad because apple made it, and that's truth. If android had same multitasking almost everyone screaming how well it works but because apple did it, it's like shit and all time joke etc.

            Like i sayed earlier, i did same things what i did my nokia full multitasking, i didn't give up any function. But now with WP7 i'm again situation where i was before iphone multitasking :)

                      SPB + new opera mini.. the mob looks futuristic :)

                      =====

                      i dont use a custom theme, coz basically im either inside an app or, in spb, back and forth etc.. rarely ever having to deal with the Symbian default UI, which isnt THAT bad imho


                      new apps coded with Qt, run and looks as well(better somtimes) then the competition

                      small example, the N8 music player,

                                Nokia N8 - awesome hardware betrayed by awful software.
                                As much as I love this phone, but I gotta admit Nokia can't make a software worthy to run the incredible hardware of this phone. The Symbian OS is the major con of N8. The user interface looks so ancient. Nokia didn't even bother to upgrade the built-in calculator. It's the same calculator you can find in the 8-year old Nokia 7650. The hardware is new. But the software that runs it looks so old.

Messing with pandora, really bad performance etc. Coming back again to the other points I listed.

                                    Also it is quite nice to actually do something heavy on the phone, then notice that the sports app has actually died a while back...

                                    I actually know quite well how the Apple "multitasking" works. Apple basically allows you to execute code on events (very resource limited piece of code). 3 triggers, audio, location, voip. Sure if you are willing to spend loads of time coding separate "multitasking" functionality and only add up GPS points in the background, you can create something like runtastic. What about a sports app that also counts your steps? Well sorry, there isn't any events fired from accelerometer. What about informing you on road blocks etc? Well I hope the app got that info while the user actually had that app open, because it sure as hell isn't going to start a status update in the background...
